AKRON — Johnny Manziel scrambled, rolled out and bootlegged his way closer to those
much-anticipated first-team reps during the Family Day scrimmage yesterday at the University of
Akron, showing some of the Johnny Football flair that made him a rock star at Texas A&M.

“We’re going to have a full staff (today) and really start to set the blueprint for the week,
and I’m sure (his first-team reps) will be a topic of discussion,” coach Mike Pettine said.

Over the past three days, the quarterback competition has shifted from Brian Hoyer being clearly
ahead and Manziel having a “very difficult time” overtaking him to an even competition, with
Manziel in line for some work with the first team, most likely this week in practice.

But Pettine refused to concede that anything has changed, even though the vibe is clearly
different and Manziel is gathering steam.
